When to use articlesHi,
In the translated text above, these terms all get the articles, however, in the test, they all don't.
i.e.:la astronomía, y en las matemáticas. También, trabajaron en la agricultura y el comercio"
in the test, it corrected me, so I'm a bit confused:
Could you please let me know when you can/cannot use the article "le,la,las" etc in front of these:
The test examples:
Kwizbot Los aztecas destacaron en astronomía,
You Los aztecas destacan en la astronomía,
You could also say: Los aztecas destacaron en la astronomía,
Kwizbot También, trabajaron en la agricultura
You También, trabajaron en agricultura
[note: here I dropped the article and it didn't correct me]
Well done! and in mathematics.
Your answer matched mine: y en matemáticas.
Thank you for your help and have a great day!

These statements actually aren’t disagreements at all. They are contrasts or comparisons. Disagreement with someone saying “I am X” would be replying with something like “No, you are not X.” Replying by saying “I am not X” is not disagreeing, but rather comparing yourself to the first speaker.
I am curious of the "la he" / "las he" used in a few examples. In what lesson is that discussed? Thank you.
In the example given:
"¿Tienes algún problema? No, pero gracias por preguntar."
Why is it not "algúnas" to match the gender of problema?

Hello,
I was wondering if the lesson you referred to below :
"Ours and Yours (plural) as pronouns are in a different lesson. It is not yet ready but it will be soon."
has been made and if so what the link is.
Thank you, NIcole
The translation for these examples have been translated in present continuous which I thought in spanish were Voy a construir una casa - I am building a house
Also Tú huyes del incendio has been translated as You're running away from the fire
which I thought would be - está huiendo del incendio
Thanks
Julie
Why did we use ustedes instead of usted ?
Hello,
It seems to me this is more of a literal translation?
Does it meant rather: "You went the wrong way."?
Or: "You walked on the wrong side of the road." ?
Thank you for your consideration.
